It Is Time

"What different tactic were you thinking?" Ah Shaye. Despite her time as a leader, he felt that sometimes she was a bit naive. Perhaps hopeful even that the world could be built purely with peace. But that wasn't the kind of world Ace had grown up in, and though he tried that approach before, it never quite worked in his favor more often than not. Rhyme went to stand by here before taking a step closer, and he knew that Rhyme knew what he was talking about. "He's going to challenge someone." He nodded once to show he was right. His own grin didn't quite fall away, and he didn't reply right away, either. He left a few moments to linger before he revealed the mystery. He wondered what they thought, if there might be a plot twist and the next words that came out could be Abaven.

But no. Abaven was not the pack he sought to take over. "Who've you got in mind, Acere?" a hint of a serious but mischievous look entered his gaze, "It's safe to say it won't be Abaven." That should ease any possible thoughts about that, right? "I've done some traveling while trying to find some followers. And I've noticed a couple of packs have been rather...quiet. Stagnant, even. Celestial and Fyri have been rather quiet, and they might as well be non-existent at this point. However, since I'm more partial to the North...Ignatius of Fyri is who I intend to challenge." He let that sink in for a moment. While yes, Fyri and Abaven had intended on allying and doing something with that alliance, Ignatius hadn't gone further than that. "As far as I can tell, Fyri is a smaller pack. And I've not seen much nor heard much from them in some time. So perhaps this might be a blessing in disguise, I think." He planned to challenge soon. Perhaps in the next day or two.
